Twenty Years Ago.
Twenty years aeo this weok a car
load of donations for tho drought stricken
suuerers ol Lincoln county was received.
'These donations were opened up in a
frame buildintr which Btood where the
building occupied by Ginn and White
now stands. A large portion or tho
donations were cast-off clothing and in
cluded ladles Leghorn hats stripped of
plumes and ilowers, silk hats and Prince
Albert coats for men, old silk petticoats
and other nether garments rich in tex
ture but somewhat ragged, and a lot of
the stuff was taken out by farmers and
used to stuff up cracks in board stables
It was no earthly use for anything
else. Of course some of the goods were
worth the while, but tho greater part
was not appreciated even by a drought
stricken sufferer.

Several employes have taken stock to
the amount of $500 each, which is the
maximum sum any one person' can so
cure. An option nas been taKen on one

question but that it will materialize and
be roady for business within the next

that those taking stock subscribed with
the view of obtaining a good rata of
interest on their investment.
